Simple questions about person What Aristotle means by courage  al experience when they first came to the UK (e.g. since when have you been here? Is it first time you study in the UK? etc.). Have you been said ‘speak loudly’, ‘speak more’ or something like similar request? Do you think you were confident and fluent to s What Aristotle means by courage  peak English when you first came to the UK? How did you feel about your speaking in English when you first came to the UK? Did you been taught grammar more than speaking at school in your country? I will avoid leading questions and using vague and linguistic terms. These questions are reasonable because they are followed by the interview guide and Dörnyei (2011) emphasizes the essentiality of it. The answers of these questions would be self-report, but it would help to make sure about my theory that East Asian students are less confident and fluent in speaking English. However, I will ask questions of which contents are same as I ask students to the teachers as well, so I will get more objective answers. In order to confirm my theory, measuring the time they take to answer the questions and counting the filler or blank in their utterances would be another possible way to find their degree of confidence and fluency. Thus, I need to record the interviews to make What Aristotle means by courage   sure how they spoke in the interviews. It is more important than getting the result of specific data (Dörnyei, 2011 What Aristotle means by courage  ). Dörnyei (2011) also claims that semi-structured interviews should be recorded because note taking process during the interviews is not enough to catch everything what the interviewee said and it might interrupt the interviews. Besides, he indicates a technical issue of recording voice by using a dictaphone, microphone or cassettes (e.g. the case we fail to record it or lose the recordings). However, I will use my smartphone and laptop computer, the issues he suggests would not be so significant. The research sample In my research, as a sample, I will choose East Asian postgraduate students at Roehampton University who have not continuously lived in English speaking countries for more than one year. They will be my old classmates when I took pre-sessional course at this university together. I am also going to ask teachers who have taught English to East Asian students to be interviewees. Regarding the sample of qualitative research, Dörnyei (2011) says that it is important to get sample from individuals who can give a researcher useful and various information and make him/her realize much more about the topic of research. Hence, for this reason, the sample I will choose would work well in my research. Both my classmates and teachers will give me great idea as well as information because they must be English learners and teachers for lon What Aristotle means by courage  g time and give me interesting viewpoints about learning English. Moreover, in qualitative research, ‘the transferability of results’ (i.e. whether or not research>
